My point, they shut him down for his own long term benefit. And the team has to play without him. Instead, they are laying down, and now, some chuckleheads in the lockerroom are blaming the team's handling of Stras. Freak those guys, Stras wasn't grounding into DPs or hitting lazy fly balls yesterday...

Our point is they, didn't need to shut him down,,,,, IF ,,,, they started him in May not April...

OR REST him for 2 or 3 starts in JUNE, JULY, AUG OR EVEN SEPT !!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Mr. Rizzo  :shrug:

Rizzo and Davey said time and time again that they wanted him on a set routine to build up arm strength. The also cited how ineffective Jordan was when he had extended rest during his rehab. ( He still has problems with extended rest)

The Yankees tried skipping starts with Hughes to stretch him out after he came back from injury and it was a disaster. There's no guaranteeing it would have helped it may have even cost the Nats the division.

Who knows.

I just find it so impossibly pathetic that GMs would wish harm on the Nats for trying to protect their own. Blows my mind.

The vitriol is disgusting.
